反応手順

A mixture of diethyl 2-phenylethylmalonate (3.61 g) and potassium hydroxide (1.69 g, 2.5 eq) in water (15 ml) was refluxed for 2 h and cooled to room temperature. The solution was washed with diethyl ether (2×10 ml) and then acidified to pH 2 (5M hydrochloric acid). The aqueous phase was extracted with diethyl ether (2×20 ml). The combined extracts were washed with water (2×20 ml), saturated brine (20 ml), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to give the title compound as a white solid (1.85 g, 65%); νmax (KBr) 3080(br), 1705 cm-1 ; δH [(CD3)2CO], 2.18 (2H, m, CH2), 2.70 (2H, m, CH2), 3.40 (1H, t, J 7.4 Hz, CH), 7.25 (5H, m, Ph). DCIMS MNH4+ 226.
